Dear all,

I did my first burn with LG GSA 4167B with Roxio 8 on to a DVD+R (Memorex) disc producing a data disc containing some avi files. But they read ok on my LG GSA 4167B but not on my other computers combi drive (dvd rom reader only) or my dvd player (which can read avi files - although not play them well). I have updated the firmware to DL12 before I did the burn.

(I have a 800MHz AMD duron and a Elitegroup mainboard k7VZA).

All I wanted was a simple data DVD+R disc that can be read in other computers not necessarily the dvd home player.

Does anyone know what i might have done wrong?

Thanks in advance.

well i found out that the combi drive is a dvd-rom and that it is most likely that old drives won't read the dvd+r format.

As for the dvd player not sure why it didnt work. Dvd booklet says disc should be iso 9660 and video format.

any ideas?
